Just saw this and wanted to say congrats!

If you're willing to pay, IFTTT has a Twitter follower action (available on the cheapest tier). For a while, I used this to track malware and post webhooks. Worked pretty well.

Maybe it's just me, but the number of bot followers I have to sift through on this site is drastically higher than the other site. Anyone else have this problem?

Sure, why not?! I added you... seems like it takes a little while to show up. If you're not on the list by tomorrow, ping me again and I'll try again.

Where can you find cheap developers, coders, and programmers to work with? Corey Butler's answer: Yo mama. Ask your siblings. Ask your parents. Ask your extended family. Nobody other than family will work on the cheap and care about the benefits you get from it. You get wh...

I'm feeling snarky. I just replied to a Quora question with "Yo mama".

Stars are kind of silly, but it still feels good to hit certain numbers. NVM for Windows just crossed 40K.

Hopefully in the next week, maybe two. The blocker is ARM64 support. We need an Azure spot instance to compile properly, then link it up to GHA. That should put us back on track.

I'll reach out as that part of our effort becomes more tenable. We're laying some groundwork now (thus stretched thin atm). For now, I just wanted to get on your radar and support your return to this effort. There is so much opportunity w/ standalone distro for JS devs!

It's a bit premature, but we're planning to build a universal packaging tool for Node/Deno/Bun (w/ cross-platform installers, code signing, etc) into our product. I might ping you up if we need help. I'd be happy to share feedback too (even if we don't need help).

I just created an automated apt repo manager w/ GitHub+Cloudflare R2. It's a great workflow enhancement, but oh how I long for a better local GitHub Actions dev environment.

If you missed @notwes.bsky.social at Bleeding Edge Web last night, the recording is available at www.youtube.com/watch?v=OxpJ...

Just a reminder this is happening the day after tomorrow!

We're looking forward to having Wes at the @expediagroup.bsky.social office in the domain!

Releases · coreybutler/nvm-windows A node.js version management utility for Windows. Ironically written in Go. - coreybutler/nvm-windows

One more last release for 2024: NVM for Windows v1.2.2 was just released to resolve a nasty little bug that prevented nvm install from working if you installed on a drive other than C:\. github.com/coreybutler/...

A lot of work went into this, but it's still a tiny fraction of what's in our pipeline. I'm excited for what's coming in 2025 and I'd love any early feedback anyone has to offer.

I currently do about 45K stars worth, serving an estimated 12-15M users. github.com/coreybutler

Sounds expensive.

The successor project we're working on at @author.io supports macOS too (Linux too, eventually). The pictured notification comes from the small part of the new app that we embedded in NVM for Windows to help begin transitioning folks to the new app. TLDR; there will be a macOS version too.

Thanks!! This is just a teeny tiny bit of what we've cooked up for the successor project.

NVM for Windows v1.2.0 will have native desktop notifications for @nodejs.org LTS/Current releases, courtesy of @author.io. I'm aiming to release it this week.

I see it as a risk v reward model capping the reward w/o capping risk.

Businesses can't earn until someone does the early legwork. The NFP model might work once that point is reached, but I don't see how it gets there to begin with unless there is an imbalanced reward for imbalanced risk/effort.

I said profit too.

What attracts investment w/o profit? Who seeds a non-profit at that scale on principle alone?

Maybe I'm too pessimistic, but I can't see anyone rallying enough support to underwrite/establish this.

Nothing wrong with profit. The problem is greed.

What motivates anyone to provide insurance if there is no profit?

I still need to maintain accounts on other microblogging sites. Anyone have recommendations on tools for auto cross-posting?

I've had this issue with other accounts too and they eventually show up. The problem, for me, is just remembering to check again 😅. I'll try again, but if I haven't pinged you about this by the time the US holidays are over, feel free to remind me.

Did you just setup a new bsky handle?

To be clear, I want to add people who are actually posting about software, hardware, development, etc. If I scroll through your feed and don't see any tech posts or something about tech in your bio, I'm not going to add you to the list.

Got it - I'm trying to keep the list focused on people posting about tech who happen to be in ATX.

Posting about tech? I didn't see anything on your feed, so it's hard to tell.
